The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 369: Oris Co-CEO Rolf Studer, Live from the Windup Watch Fair

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Rolf Studer, Co-CEO of Oris, for a conversation recorded live at the Windup Watch Fair in New York City over the weekend. Oris has been an important partner and supporter of the Windup Watch Fair for years, so it was rewarding to see them choose the opening of Windup as the launch platform for their latest release, the new Divers Date. The Divers Date is an evolution of the Divers Sixty-Five, which itself is one of the most important enthusiast focused watches of the last decade, helping to usher in the era of vintage inspired reinterpretations that have dominated the watch space. Now, with the Divers Date, Oris has made a series of small changes to modernize the look and feel of the watch, giving it some subtle refinements that will appeal to a whole new crop of enthusiasts. In this conversation, Rolf and Zach talk about the history of the Divers Sixty-Five, how Oris goes about planning for a launch like this, and the importance of the enthusiast community. 

Before that, Zach is joined by Kyle Snarr, Worn & Wound’s Head of Partnerships, for a quick conversation about the just completed Windup Watch Fair, including some favorite moments and discoveries from a fair unlike any before it. For those who missed it, we’ll be showing you more photos and video footage from the fair soon, but until then we hope you enjoy this quick recap and a great conversation with Rolf Studer.
